At work, so have to make this short for now, just didn't want anyone thinking I'd disappeared again :)
So I made it through the weekend on plan as far as I can tell. Saturday I had about 5 points left over. Sunday I didn't count actual points, but did keep a list of what we had to eat and I'd say I was about 8 points under give or take.
My mom apparently didn't believe me that everybody would be busy for mother's day brunch, so when we got to the restaurant she was very surprised at the crowd, and decided we would go home for lunch instead. This worked out well for me because I've gotten pretty good at fixing healthy stuff at home, less so at ordering it out. So we got some deli stuff and veggies and fairly healthy sub buns (Whole wheat, no HFCS, no Trans) and salad stuff. Then we spent the rainy mother's day playing on my parent's new wii (I suck at the bowling, but did quite well on the golf and ok on the tennis).
My worst item for the weekend was a diet coke cupcake (chocolate cake mix and cherry coke zero), because I also gave in to the temptation of the pre-packaged cream cheese frosting to put on top, which is just about the worst substance on earth. (and one of the best, taste-wise)
Today's biggest challenge is the office trip out to Olive Garden for lunch. OG's website really needs to have more nutritional info ;(

Good luck w/eating out at the OG. I like to get soup/salad (the veggie soup... whatever one that is... pasta fagioli or minestrone... I can never remember which). Sometimes I do the pasta that's basically got bruschetta as the "sauce". I can't remember what it's called, but it's tasty (and enough for 2 meals!).
You will reach a point where that frosting no longer seems like the best thing in the world. It takes time but it does happen.
Glad the weekend went well, and that you got a chance to play with your parents' wii. I wish I could send mine back in time to Case, where I'd actually have time to use it...
